PALM BEACH: US President Donald Trump said Saturday that he believes multiple reports that Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has been killed in airstrikes are true – but stopped short of directly confirming the news.
“We feel that that is a correct story,” he was quoted as saying by NBC News.
Trump also spoke to ABC News about reports of Khamenei’s death, saying, “I don’t want to say anything definitively until I see things but we believe he is. And much of their leaders are gone.”
